Hibernate provides Query Cache to improve the performance of queries that run multiple times with same parameters.
- It has to be used based on the benefits gained by it in performance of the queries in an application.
- It can reduce the performance of Transactional processing.
- There are two hibernate properties where the query cache is enabled.
hibernate.cache.use_second_level_cache=true|false hibernate.cache.use_query_cache=true|false
- The Query Cache is disabled by default in Hibernate, and we need to activate it.
- We need to defined the following Hibernate property:
properties.put(“hibernate.cache.use_query_cache”,Boolean.TRUE.toString());
